Anchoring the Buildings

G.. II. Cook wishes to call the attention
of property owners to the Architectural
Device. BY applying this, you strength
en- building, and prevent the wear and
tear on timbers and plaster which take
place, even under the force of ordinary
winds. ~
As shown by official reports, eighty per
cent. more damage is done to property in
this way than in the way of destruction
by the monster cyclone. It will pay ev-
cry person owning building to make a
careful examination of the Device, which
can be seen on the following buildings:
Commercial House.
j. w. Bells residence.
Marshall & Uford Implement Depot,
occupied by Ellsworth Lumber Co.
W. B. Kelly's residence.
Aldrin Bros Drug House.
Thomas Caddick's Store Building.
Horace F. Morse's residence.
Leonard Schmitt's blacksmith shop
and three residences.
